The Friends of Fun Food team has had lots of fun recently with people of all different ages in various cooking events around Bolton.

One of these was a programme to get children and families eating healthier and exercising more. Friends of Fun Food joined with Bolton At Home’s Community Development Team and Bolton Council’s Sports and Active Living Team at the Hope Centre in Johnson Fold for five sessions of ‘Family Fun & Food’. The families came and enjoyed a cooking session learning new recipes and how to eat healthily on a budget; they then took part in a variety of games and exercises. Each session finished with everyone eating the meals they had prepared earlier. We received some fantastic feedback from the participants:

“All the staff do a fantastic job for our community. It’s perfect to bring everybody together for sports, a natter and to cook”
